Camilla Belle in À Deriva

This might be one of those movies that I have to rent on dvd. That way I can turn down the volume, skip all the weird parts, and just concentrate on the scenery and costumes.

Home Profile: Vanessa Carlton

 

Vanessa Carlton's apartment in New York City.  

1960's Pierre Cardin stainless steel table. The painting, by her grandfather, reminds me of a vintage print that I own. It used to hang in a public library so it isn't that sexy;)

Vanessa hauled the two vintage chairs home in a taxi from Housing Works.

Amanda Harlech and Tallulah Ormsby-Gore

I have to admit I'm envious of all these fashion loving mom & daughter duos. Going clothing shopping with my mother, which was rare, usually resulted in tears and headaches.

Amanda Harlech, muse extraordinaire, allowed her daughter Tallulah to style her for UK Vogue. The outfits look like something Luxirare would wear.

Beauty Mark: Megan Fox Gets Old Hollywood

I love the Ava Gardner look she is channeling here. Old Hollywood hair, red lipstick, groomed eyebrows, and gold drop earrings.

Artist: Photographer Lillian Bassman

 

One can see how John Galliano was inspired by photographer Lillian Bassman. Both art director and fashion photographer for Bazaar between the 40's and 50's, her transcendent photography invigorated fashion. 

Unfortunately, disillusioned with the art world in the 70's, she destroyed the majority of her work. A bag of negatives was found 20 years later and her photography is enjoying a resurgence today.

Flashback: Kate Moss in Vintage Bowie

 

After what was supposed to be a lovely weekend turned into an all work nightmare, I tried to unwind by watching Velvet Goldmine last night. It did the opposite, as I want to be a glitter kid even more. 

British Vogue did a photoshoot with Kate Moss styled in David Bowie's old stage clothes. The kimono top and shorts were done by Kansai Yamamoto in 1973.
